Well I am at the half way mark now for the 6 month diet required by the insurance company. I have nutritionist left to do and chest xray and blood work. Cannot wait to get through these newt 3 months. I've gone to so many appointments and jumped through all the hoops including having my gallbladder removed. July cannot come soon enough!

Pagoda for you in your excitement for the surgery to happen. July will be here in no time. You have enough time to make changes in your habits prior to the surgery which will help u after surgery.

Oops.. Paradox? My iPad writes for me sometimes. Should read "good for you"

Wow you got it all done! Way to go! I would've been done but I had gallbladder surgery and I can't do the blood work until 2 months prior at the very soonest because it's only good for 2 months.

Oh ok you'll get there glad the gallbladder surgery went well. I was kind of down because yesterday because I haven't lost one pound yet I haven't gained anything either but I've really been trying from Portion Control to Protein to Water and I haven't lost anything. And then I came to the realization that that's the whole reason I'm doing this because I can't do it on my own I need help.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
